Diabetic Foot Assessments at Dynamic Podiatry: Protecting Your Foot Health
If you have diabetes, taking care of your feet is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your health. At Dynamic Podiatry in Ferny Hills, we specialise in comprehensive diabetic foot assessments to help prevent complications, detect problems early, and keep you mobile and pain-free.
Why Podiatry is Important for People with Diabetes
Diabetes can have a significant impact on your feet. High blood sugar levels can damage nerves and blood vessels, leading to two key problems:
· Peripheral Neuropathy – reduced sensation in the feet, making it difficult to feel pain, heat, or injuries.
· Poor Circulation – decreased blood flow can slow healing and increase the risk of infection.
Even small cuts, blisters, or pressure areas can quickly develop into serious ulcers or infections if left untreated. In severe cases, this can lead to hospitalisation or amputation.
Seeing a podiatrist regularly helps detect problems early and prevents complications. Our team at Dynamic Podiatry is experienced in managing diabetic foot health and providing personalised advice and treatment plans.
